Abstract

On-chip optical interconnects still miss a high-performance laser monolithically integrated on silicon. Here, we demonstrate a silicon-integrated InP nano-laser that operates at room temperature with a low threshold of 1.69 pJ, and a large spontaneous emission factor of 0.04. An epitaxial scheme to grow relatively thick InP nanowires on (001) silicon is developed. The zincblende/wurtzite crystal phase polytypism and the formed type II heterostructures are found to promote lasing over a wide wavelength range.
